Laptop Info

[Ichigo]

Just for interest sake I would like to know what laptop for gaming/GIS & CAD I can get for a R20k Budget.

Needs to have Wireless N, Bluetooth, Card Reader and a full numpad. Must have the look and feel & keyboard like the acer travelmates if possible since I hate the look of thinkpads .

Must have a quiet fan and not burn my hand if I rest my hand on the laptop.

There are quite a few options for that amount of cash.
Personal Fav's:
MSI GT780R

Maybe try look and see if you can get a look in at the Asus G74SX, its in the latest issue of NAG. They say its 23g's but you might be able to find it cheaper somewhere

All three would be great with service and quality, in fact I am looking at getting myself a gaming laptop in November and I'd be going for 1 of the above mentioned ones.

Anyway Prices for them.
